Ron Moraca General The DDA-40X was the only diesel EVER to use 4-axle trucks. A diesel this massive will never be built again. Too bad GEVO technology wasn't available back then because it very probably would have extended the DDA-40X's operable life span considerably. 10/22/2007 10:10:57 PM
Allan Love Jr General WOW! That is nice. 9/16/2009 10:52:39 PM
Todd Madson General I sure loved those things. Back when big was better. 10/29/2009 3:29:58 AM
Jonathan Vincent General Actually Ron, the DD35 and DD35A also ran on four axle trucks. The DDA-40X was the direct descendant of these. 12/29/2010 2:49:11 PM
